Netrin-1 facilitates somatic cell reprogramming by limiting Dcc pro-apoptotic activity.

ABSTRACT: The generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells holds great promise in regenerative medicine. However, the relative flaws in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms promoting or limiting reprogramming still hinder the efficient generation of high quality iPS cells. Whereas modulation of the initial Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and c-Myc (OSKM) cocktail with new transcription factors has been extensively documented, comparatively little is known about soluble molecules promoting the process, even if such recombinant factors could be highly valuable for therapeutic applications. In this study we developed a large-scale identification method to uncover novel programmed cell death (PCD)-related mechanisms limiting somatic cell reprogramming to pluripotency (SCRP). We identified Netrin-1 and its dependence receptor Dcc (Deleted in Colorectal Carcinoma), previously described for their respective survival/death functions both in normal and oncogenic contexts, as novel key SCRP modulators. We show that the early phase of SCRP is accompanied with a strong Netrin-1 deficiency, due to the improper epigenetic regulation of the Ntn1 promoter by OSKM. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that such Netrin-1 imbalance induces apoptosis mediated by the dependence receptor Dcc in a p53-independent manner. Correction of the Netrin-1/Dcc equilibrium by gain-of-ligand and loss-of-receptor experiments constrains apoptosis and improves reprogramming. As a consequence, we propose a novel iPS derivation protocol including a sequential treatment with recombinant Netrin1 that greatly facilitates the generation of mouse and human iPS cells.

RNA-sequencing of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (passage 2 and passage 4), mouse pre-iPS cells (passage 5 and passage 25), 1 clone of control iPS (passage 5 and passage 25) and 2 independent clones of "Netrin-1 derived" iPS cells (passage 5 and passage 25). For this analysis, mouse iPS cell lines were grown in KSR+LIF media.

OSKM factors cooperatively engage chromatin to initiate reprogramming

Project description:Reprogramming cells from one fate to another, using transcription factors, generates cells for research and potential therapy, yet little is known about the initial engagement of reprogramming factors with the genome. We mapped the interactions between Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc (OSKM) and the human genome during the first 48 hours of cellular reprogramming to pluripotency. Unlike that reported in ES/iPS cells, we find extensive overlap in the initial binding of OSKM, demonstrating that the initial regulatory network differs markedly from that in pluripotency. OSK act as pioneer factors for c-Myc, and c-Myc enhances the engagement of OSK, including at many genes that are required for conversion to pluripotency. Distal enhancer sites in closed chromatin dominate the initial OSKM distribution. Hierarchical chromatin binding during reprogramming resembles that employed during development. Four chIP-seq data sets (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc) are included, one lane per factor, no replicates. Also included is an input lane from the same conditions and two mock lentiviral controls (no exogenous OSKM factors) treated with Oct4 IP and c-Myc IP.

Orphan Nuclear Receptors ERRα/γ are competence factors for somatic cell reprogramming

Project description:We report the expression profiles of the nuclear receptor family of transcription factors, known regulators of metabolism, during iPSC generation. Unique but overlapping expression patterns were found in iPSCs derived from adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) and embryonic fibroblasts (human and mouse) that correlate with developmental transitions in the cell. Total RNA was obtained from human embryonic fibroblast IMR90 cells (IMR90s) untreated, transduced with GFP or with the four reprogramming factors (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, c-Myc; OSKM) at day 5 of reprogramming.

Molecular insights into induced pluripotency mediated by the OCT4, SOX2, KLF and c-MYC gene regulatory network

Project description:Human somatic fibroblasts can be reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells by exogenic expression of the Yamanaka factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC) after about 1 month. To gain some insight into the early processes operative in fibroblast reprogramming, we profiled genome-wide transcription levels using Illumina microarrays in the starting donor cells-human foreskin fibroblast (HFF1) cells and at three time points after OSKM transduction (24 h, 48 h, 72 h), as well as two iPS cell lines (iPS2, iPS4) and hES cell lines (H1, H9). We show that within the context of the viral transduction reprogramming protocol, the donor cell response to viral transfection perturbs redox homeostasis, which induces oxidative damage on the donor cells' protein and DNA. This leads to activation of p53, senescence, and apoptosis, greatly reducing the efficiency of reprogramming. Total RNA obtained from HFF1 (human foreskin fibroblast) cells, OSKM-transduced HFF1 cells after 24h, 48h, 72h, undifferentiated hESCs, iPSCs.

Genome-wide mapping of miRNAs expressed in embryonic stem cells and pluripotent stem cells generated by different reprogramming strategies

Project description:We report the miRNA profiling in MEF cells, ES cells and three Pluripotent Stem Cells obtained by three different reprogramming approaches from MEF cells based on Solexa sequencing. iPS cells are reprogrammed by four factors (OSKM) from MEF cells. NT-ESCs were established by reprogramming MEF cells into ESCs using nuclear transfer. NT-iPSCs were established to reflect the combination of nuclear transfer and iPS technologies. iPSCs, NT-ESCs, and NT-iPSCs were exactly derived from the same MEF cells. The results indicate NT-ESCs give expression to the unique miRNAs other than both ESCs and iPSCs while pluripotent cells acquire or retain the pluripotent specific miRNAs compared with MEF. Furthermore, the comparison of different reprogramming cells suggests that several miRNAs have key roles in distinctly developmental potential reprogrammine cells. Small RNA profiles of MEF, ES, iPS, NT-ES and NT-iPS cells were generated by Solexa sequencing. MEF and ES cells were performed in triplicate. iPS, NT-ES and NT-iPS cells were sequenced in duplicate.

C/EBPα poises B cells for rapid reprogramming into iPS cells [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:C/EBPα induces transdifferentiation of B cells into macrophages at high efficiencies and enhances reprogramming into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) when co-expressed with Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and Myc (OSKM). However, how C/EBPα accomplishes these effects is unclear. We now found that transient C/EBPα expression followed by OSKM activation induces a 100 fold increase in iPSC reprogramming efficiency, involving 95% of the cells. During this conversion pluripotency and epithelial-mesenchymal transition genes become dramatically up-regulated and 60% of the cells express Oct4 within 2 days. C/EBPα acts as a pathbreaker since it transiently makes the chromatin of pluripotency genes more accessible to DNase I. It also induces the expression of the dioxygenase Tet2 and promotes its translocation to the nucleus where it binds to regulatory regions of pluripotency genes that become demethylated following OSKM induction. In line with these findings, overexpression of Tet2 enhances OSKM‐induced B cell reprogramming. Since the enzyme is also required for efficient C/EBPα-induced immune cell conversion, our data suggest that Tet2 provides a mechanistic link between iPSC reprogramming and B cell transdifferentiation. The rapid iPS reprogramming approach described should help to fully elucidate the process and has potential clinical applications. Change in Cebpa genome binding/occupancy, comparing primary B-cells treated with estradiol for 18h to induce C/EBPa to untreated cells.

OSKM induce extraembryonic endoderm stem (iXEN) cells in parallel to iPS cells

Project description:While the reprogramming factors OCT4, SOX2, KLF4, and MYC (OSKM) can reactivate the pluripotency network in terminally differentiated cells, they also regulate expression of non-pluripotency genes in other contexts, such as the mouse primitive endoderm. The primitive endoderm is an extraembryonic lineage established alongside the pluripotent epiblast in the blastocyst, and is the progenitor pool for extraembryonic endoderm stem (XEN) cells. Several studies have shown that endodermal genes are upregulated in fibroblasts undergoing reprogramming, although whether endodermal genes promote or inhibit acquisition of pluripotency is unclear. We show that, in fibroblasts undergoing conventional reprogramming, OSKM-induced expression of endodermal genes leads to formation of induced XEN (iXEN) cells, which possess key properties of blastocyst-derived XEN cells, including morphology, transcription profile, self-renewal, and multipotency. Our data show that iXEN cells arise in parallel to iPS cells, indicating that OSKM are sufficient to drive cells to two distinct fates during reprogramming.
